HOT off the back of their sold-out tour dates, the newly-reformed
The Pixies have decided to release a new Greatest Hits collection,
entitled, Wave of Mutilation.
The 23-track compilation will be available from May 3, just after
the band's reunion debut at the Coachella Festival, in California,
on May 1.
The collective will span The Pixies' five-year career, from 1987
to 1992, as well as the mini-album, Come On Pilgrim, as
well as B-sides, the live favourite, Into The White, and
the band's cover of Neil Young's Winterlong.
A DVD, entitled ‘Pixies’, will also be released, including
The Pixies' set at London's Town And Country Club, in 1988, all
eight of their rarely seen promotional videos (including Monkey
Gone to Heaven, Here Comes Your Man and Head On) and
backstage, behind-the-scenes footage of The Pixies' 1989 European
tour.
